What About Staked STARS?

What About LP Tokens?

STARS in Osmosis liquidity pools:

  • LP tokens on Osmosis remain separate

Your STARS on the Hub can be used for:

  • Minting NFTs

  • Trading NFTs

  • Trading on DEXs

  • Side Apps that may use the token

Community Pool Restructure

The STARS community pool will be restructured through an on-chain proposal. Funds will be distributed to community DAOs who will manage ongoing initiatives, grants, and ecosystem development.

Details will be announced via a Commonwealth vote before migration.

Note: STARS no longer has staking or governance utility since Stargaze is no longer a standalone chain.

Troubleshooting

"No STARS to claim"

  • Verify correct wallet

  • Check if STARS were on a different address

  • Ensure you held STARS before the snapshot

"Amount seems wrong"

  • Snapshot was at a specific block

  • Transfers after snapshot not included

  • Contact support with details

Liquidity on Osmosis

A stable swap pool exists on Osmosis:

  • Swap between old and new STARS

  • Normal DEX functionality
